S Detector
The H
2
S detector consists of the detector housing body, detector housing cap, cap gasket, and
the plug-in sensor.

S Detector Component Location
Detector Housing Body
The detector housing body protects the electronic components within the housing. Use the
mounting threads at the top of the housing to screw the H
2
S detector into the 3/4 NPT hub on
the bottom of the junction box. Two wires extend from the top of the detector housing body.
Use these wires to connect the H
2
S detector to the amplifier. One of the wires is red and one of
the wires is black.
The housing includes a four-socket pattern. This socket pattern accepts the sensor’s four pins
to secure the sensor within the detector housing. A pre-amplifier, located between the sockets
and two interconnect wires, conditions the sensor’s signal before the signal reaches the
controller.
Housing Cap & Cap Gasket
The housing cap screws onto the detector housing. It retains the plug-in sensor and protects it
from damage. A foam gasket inside the housing cap seals against the face of the sensor when
the cap is screwed onto the housing body. A hydrophobic membrane on the outside of the cap
face keeps water and particulates away from the sensor face behind the cap. Unscrew the
detector cap to access the plug-in sensor for maintenance or replacement. A cap gasket seals
the interface between the housing and cap.
Plug-In H
2
S Sensor
The sensor is secured within the detector assembly by the housing cap. Through a series of
chemical and electrical reactions, the sensor produces an electrical output that corresponds to
the detection range of the transmitter.
